Combined Authorities and Metro Mayors
Combined Authorities and Metro Mayors What is a combined authority (CA)? A combined authority (CA) is a legal body set up using national legislation that enables a group of two or more councils to collaborate and take collective decisions across council boundaries. It is far more robust than an informal partnership or even a joint committee. The creation of a CA means that member councils can be more ambitious in their joint working and can take advantage of powers and resources devolved to them from national government. While established by Parliament, CAs are locally owned and have to be initiated and supported by the councils involved. 54 (17%) Number of local authorities (excluding the 33 London boroughs) with full membership of a combined authority 22% Percentage of population of England outside London living in a mayoral combined authority area Brief background to devolution and the combined authorities The idea of devolution has excited the imaginations of the political class for a long time even if the public has been less enthusiastic. The turnout rates for the May 2017 Metro Mayor 1 elections attest to this. Devolution was given a big push under New Labour but John Prescott’s North East Devolution Referendum 2004 was decisively rejected by the people (78% of voters were against). The idea was nevertheless pursued by the Coalition. Heseltine’s No Stone Unturned: In pursuit of growth 2012 report made a reasonable case for the concentration of funding streams and for these to be placed under local political control for greater efficiency and flexibility and to maximise effect. -

For each stage of consultation on the Salford Local Plan that has been undertaken to date it details: • which bodies and persons were invited to make representations under Regulation 18; • how those bodies and persons were invited to make such representations; and • a summary of the main issues raised by those representations. 1.2 There have been two key stages of consultation on the local plan to date: • Call for sites consultation (8 February – 12 April 2013) • Suggested sites consultation (10 January – 21 March 2014) Statement of community involvement 2.1 The city council’s statement of community involvement (SCI) was formally adopted on 20 January 2010. The SCI aims to increase public involvement in the planning process. It sets out who will be involved, by what method and at what point in the process of document production or in the determination of planning applications. It gives more certainty to those wishing to get involved in the planning process. 2.2 The SCI sets out the council’s policy for community engagement in the production of formal planning documents. Below is a summary of the SCI guidance in respect of consultation at the different stages of development plan document (DPD) production: Stage 1 This stage includes defining the objectives for the DPD as well as the framework and scope of the sustainability appraisal (SA). Stage 2 This stage includes evidence gathering and identifying the main issues and options for the DPD, and developing the necessary evidence to support the DPD. -
